Many viewers have sent in suggestions for the use of silicone spray, and the list is long. Aside from all the standard squeaky hinges, some that caught my attention were:
- lubricate sewing needles to get through heavy materials;
- spray foam rubber before trying to squeeze it into the cloth sleeves commonly used by upholsterers;
- use as a molding release for plastic molded parts;
- use to keep outdoor locks from freezing (it displaces water, hence literally drives existing water out of a lock);
- lubricate sliding windows so they slide better;
- use it on your snow shovel to keep the snow from sticking.
